Episode #28 - Spoiler Alert

Beyond The Beermat

The thirst for knowledge is a noble pursuit. But when it comes to wrestling, have we gotten to a point where knowing every little thing that goes on – both on and off camera – has become a little counter productive. We’re so interested in jumping ahead of the story that when it comes to criticism, we jump on the negative before it’s even been played out in its entirety. There are two sides to every discussion. Those that feel the comfort in knowing – for better or worse – what’s to come so they can prepare accordingly. On the other hand there are those happy to be along for the ride, who in turn run the risk of being unprepared and may not like where they may end up. For this episode of Beyond The Beermat, we’re pulling all the stops and drawing from may different worlds outside of wrestling to illustrate why it’s really really good – or bad – to know everything in advance and how it shapes your overall experience of the product. As more and more people tune out of wrestling, tune in to this to see what the impact of our desire to consume everything about the product may have done to it.
